Stand in Tiananmen Square and admire the architectural landmarks that surround one of the world's grandest public plazas. Then follow in the footsteps of Ming Dynasty Emperors on a private tour through the magnificent Forbidden City #WHS#, a sprawling complex of palaces, courtyards and pavilions.

Day 3: The Great Wall #WHS# + Summer Palace #WHS#

With smaller crowds, the more remote Mutianyu section of the Great Wall affords a more authentic experience. Ascend by cable car to walk atop this ancient defensive structure and take in the sweeping views as your expert personal guide shares dramatic tales of China's ancient history. In the afternoon, you'll break for lunch before visiting the resplendent Summer Palace, erstwhile seasonal retreat of China's emperors. Set on wooded hills surrounding a tranquil lake, this assemblage of pavilions, palaces and gardens offers a fascinating look into Imperial life long ago. Meals B+L

Day 5: The Terra Cotta Army #WHS#

After breakfast, you'll visit China's greatest archaeological discovery, uncovered by local villagers in 1974. Stand in awe before the thousands of life-sized terra cotta soldiers and horses that were buried 2,000 years ago in perfect infantry formation to guard the tomb of an Emperor. With our expert guide at your side, this unforgettable visit offers a fascinating look into China's ancient history.
